This website privacy policy is based on a template
created by Template-contracts.co.uk
and distributed by Website-law.co.uk.[12]
[1] The
purpose of a website privacy policy is help webmasters and web-based businesses
comply with data protection legislation.
In the
[2] The
privacy policy should be clearly and easily accessible to website visitors from
the website home page and any page which collects personal data (e.g. “The
personal information we collect on this page will be treated in accordance with
our privacy policy”). In
addition, key information about the use of personal data should be provided on
the page where the data is collected, rather than in a separate document.
[3] “Personal
information”: for day-to-day purposes, it is best to assume that all
information which relates to a living individual constitutes personal
information. We use “personal data” and
“personal information” interchangeably in this template.
[4] If your
site doesn’t use cookies, the paragraphs on cookies can be deleted.
[5] As a
general rule, where you plan to use personal information you have collected for
the purpose of direct marketing, this should be made clear on the page where
the information is collected, and you should ensure that this only happens if
users opt-in to the marketing (e.g. “Click here if you would like us to send
you information by email about products which we think will interest
you...”). There are however exceptions
to this general rule. There are also
rules about the content of direct marketing communications. If you are in any doubt about complying with
your legal obligations in relation to direct marketing, you should seek
professional advice.
[6] The
relevant licence should be set out in the appropriate disclaimer/terms of
use/terms of subscription etc. document.
[7] It is
good practice to also say what you will not do with personal information
(within reason).
[8] You
should insert details of any payment services provider(s) you use here. If you don't collect payments on your
website, you can delete this section.
[9] Give as
much detail as possible about any such international transfers. You also need to be aware that the inclusion
of this provision will not be sufficient to ensure that all
international transfers of personal data are lawful. If in doubt, you should take professional
advice on this point.
[10] There is
an obligation upon data controllers to store personal data securely. You should provide details of your security
measures here.
[11] Changes
to the policy – in particular as to permissible uses of personal data – may not
be retrospective. In other words, if you collect personal information on one
basis, you cannot, simply by changing the terms of your policy, go on to
legitimately use that information on a different basis.
[12] Please
note that it is a condition of the use of this template that you either: (i)
retain this credit and these links; or (ii) pay the appropriate licence
fee in relation to each website on which the document is used.
